Zelda is my bane. With the Spring Season about to hit my Wife and I have like 30+ 1st Episode Reviews to churn out over the next three weeks. But I really want to just say "screw it" to all that and stay in bed playing Zelda all day =/ Why can't I be ten again?

It wasn't a total loss, but yeah it really damaged things early on and then at the end. I wonder what this means for AoT? I would hope the pacing isn't quite so rushed, but I also don't recall a good place to end things if we're not rushing content. Maybe if I have time later I'll load up the manga again and try to see where they could get to in just one cour.

Dude, I'm not sure what to do here... I just finished Tales of Berseria Tuesday night and now I have Nier, Horizon and Mass Effect staring at me, plus P5 on Monday night.... What do I play through this weekend? Do I start on of the backlog games or wait until 5 drops!?!

I would drop Mass Effect. Game doesnt hold a candle to anything else you have listed. I'd do Horizon, Nier, Persona since you can beat them in 15ish, 25ish and then finally, over 100 hours respectively. Persona is the longest game of the 3 and there really isn't anything too crazy coming out until E3. These 3 games should be more than enough to keep you busy for a while.

True enough. One of the guys I work with wants me to play ME first, so I can let him borrow it. He just wants to get to the point where he can bang a dude (I can't remember who is husband is) and then drop it since he doesn't really care what happens to the human race and finding a new home. Selfish jerk.

Andromeda is basically just as bad as anime.
Poor animations, terrible writing, bland characters and a generic story. The only redeeming point is combat, which apparently lacks tactics. Cornbread will love it.

whelp, if you enjoyed S1, then there should be no reason to deny S2 a chance. I'm just hoping it's a fun watch again!

I'll always remember this thread's start date thanks to it starting on the same day as my birthday :p

Hm out of everything next season only Sakura Quest grabbed my interest (and I'll admit it's because it just reminded me of Shirobako for superficial reasons.) Need to check out eccentric family season 1 before I jump on season 2 as well.

I remember there was a Hyouka discussion in the previous thread, aside from how it stands in terms of production quality I've admired that show for how mysteries fold out in every episode. Acutely well written and paced.

Not a fan of how they went all the way with ghosts'n stuff in this. Much prefer it as a down to earth drama.

Rakugo stories generally end up with surrealist elements while remaining grounded initially, particularly the one Bon was performing at that point. I feel this particular scene/sequence (if not the entire show in general) was playing out like a Rakugo story. I appreciate that the transitions are pretty fluid but I think this was a bit more indulgent than usual. Then again, the man was on the brink of death.

First of all, Happy B-Day! Second of all, go marathon Eccentric Family!
